B Correct answer
Explanation

The Right Atrium is the chamber of the heart that receives deoxygenated blood from the body through the superior and inferior vena cava. From the right atrium, the blood flows into the right ventricle, which then pumps it to the lungs for oxygenation. The left side of the heart deals exclusively with oxygenated blood returning from the lungs.
